          lead.
        
        
          The defense forced a punt
        
        
          after 3 plays, however a fumble

          took the ball around the left end

          Cal-Mum began the 2nd half
        
        
          with the football, however were

          straight tackles from defensive
        
        
          end Connor Hegeman.  The

          quarterback Tommy Condidorio
        
        
          then threw a perfect pass down
        
        
          field, hittingAdrian Stephens in
        
        
          stride for a 26 yard gain.  One

          LeRoy’sdefensewas fantastic
        
        
          in the contest, allowing 1 first
        
        
          down in the game, which came
        
        
          on Cal-Mum’s last possession.
        
        
          Defensive endConnorHegeman

          The Le Roy Senior Knights
        
        
          travelled to Caledonia to take
        
        
          on the undefeated and unscored
        
        
          upon Cal-Mum Red Raiders.
        
        
          Cal-Mum opened the game on
        
        
          offense and drove down the
        
        
          field scoring a touchdown.  The
        
        
          2 point conversion attempt was
        
        
          shut down by a tough Le Roy
        
        
          defense.  Cal-Mum thenattempt-
        
        
          ed an onside kick but Le Roy’s
        
        
          Ryan Higgins would recover.
        
        
          TheKnights tookoveronoffense
        
        
          but were unable to get anything
        
        
          going.  Cal-Mum’s offense once
        
        
          again took thefield andmarched
        
        
          downfora touchdown. Cal-Mum
        
        
          would again attempt the onside
        
        
          kick,however this timeLeRoy’s
        
        
          RileyWilliamswould recover it.
        
        
          On the very first offensive play
        
        
          of thisdrive,LeRoy’sBradyFix
        
        
          tookoff fora48yard touchdown
        
        
          run. The 2 point attempt was
        
        
          stopped and the first half ended
        
        
          with the scorewas 12-6 in favor
        
        
          ofCaledonia.Cal-Mum’sdefense
        
        
          proved toomuch for theKnights
        
        
          to handle, keeping the Knights

          TheKnights defensewas able to
        
        
          shutdown theCaledoniaoffense,
        
        
          and late in the forth quarter Le
        
        
          Roy’s Brock Flint blocked a
        
        
          Caledonia punt giving Le Roy
        
        
          the ball at the Cal-Mum 3 yard
        
        
          line. Again theCal-Mumdefense
        
        
          held strong not allowingLeRoy
        
        
          to score.  The game ended with
        
        
          Caledonia on top 12-6.  For Le
